Chardonnay

$29.95/750 ML

ORIGIN: VQA Niagara Peninsula

STYLE: Medium-bodied and slightly rich

ALCOHOL: 12.9%

SWEETNESS: Dry, 2.8 g/L

Winemaker’s notes: Harvested from vineyards across the Niagara Peninsula, this Chardonnay is barrel fermented and aged sur lie for 12 months in 100% French oak barrels, of which 25% were new. No malolactic fermentation was performed which leaves a refreshingly acidic mouthfeel.

Flavour profile: Clear and bright with a straw yellow hue. The bouquet shows notes of red apple, pineapple, Bartlett pear, spice and oak. This Chardonnay is smooth yet still refreshing, medium-bodied, slightly rich, and fruit-forward. You’ll find flavours of apple and citrus with a touch of spice and toasty oak that lingers on the finish.

Best served: Serve lightly chilled at 14 to 15°C. Serve with roasted chicken; pork roast with stuffing; buttery potatoes; cream sauces on seafood, chicken, pasta, or pork; smoked salmon risotto; chicken pot pies; or turkey with mushroom bread stuffing. Enjoy now through 2026.
